Abstract: Relatively little is known about the accuracy of conceptual rainfall-runoff model simulations of extreme floods. A case study is used to evaluate the accuracy of runoff model simulations of the 100-year flood of July 1, ...

Abstract: For a variety of design purposes there is increasing interest in estimating probabilities of rare floods, with magnitudes up to the probable maximum flood. One estimation approach, which we term “stochastic storm transposition,” ...
